These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "dev-java/sun-jdk" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.17 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s)) A copy of the 'dlj-1.1' license is located at '/usr/portage/licenses/dlj-1.1'. - dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.16 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s)) - dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.15 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s)) - dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.22 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s)) - dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.21 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s)) - dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.20 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s)) - dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.19 (masked by: sun-bcla-java-vm license(s), missing keyword) A copy of the 'sun-bcla-java-vm' license is located at '/usr/portage/licenses/sun-bcla-java-vm'.
